Can this be used for cleaning up a basement with lots of spider webs, old dirt buildup, and some mold (nothing excessive for the mold, but very dirty)

No expert on that, but, speaking for myself, I would get the organic vapor filters with dust filters. I would wear a tyvek painters zip up coverall. I would also wear a spray paint over the head cover, a hat, spray paint booties, and painters gloves. You will look like an alien, but you will stay clean. Be sure to put the face mask on tight.

Yes it can be used for cleanup. This mask is an excellent product. It protects entire face. I'm the owner of painting corporate and I bought this mask for a very hevy sanding. No doubt, this is the best mask I ever had.

Yes but it would be a waist it will do 1000 sqft. But it will kill the mold but will not clean the stains u have to do that with a cleaner first than bomb it

It's not recommended. The Hoover cleaner is great, however, do not use it full strength.

Not really. It can break up set in stains. Great for grout, grills, floors. It does not suck up dirt, it breaks it down. I purchased a Hoover steam vac from amazon, perfect for carpets. I had a bissell. The Hoover out cleans the bissell by a mile. At about 159.00 it is a steal.

I wouldn't as it leaves quite a bit of wetness behind and has scrubbing brushes that could damage the surface. Works well with carpet since you can go back over several times to suck up the water, but you still must let carpet dry for a few hours.

It will work for cleaning gutters. But if the ground is level a step ladder would be my choice.

It is difficult to say whether this mop would allow for really scrubbing dirty areas because it depends on the type of flooring and the type and amount of grime to clean. This mop works well on smooth surfaces which require moderate pressure. It is not a heavy duty mop. I am not familiar with the "Vileda Ultra Max" mop.

I have removed many spiders with past Dust Busters. Above model seems to have even more suction power. Believe it should work on any kind of spiders.

Not really. A broom and dustpan are still your best bet for things like that. I find this works best on carpet including thin outdoor carpet. I use a Swiffer to clean un-carpeted surfaces.

Yes, it works really well for at least one room. Of course, it can only remove the spores from the air. It won't fix the source of the mold. You need to control moisture for that. I have a basement exhaust fan that runs whenever humidity is over 30%.

You certainly can. I like this spot cleaner well enough, but it doesn't have the greatest suction. It's fine, if you don't mind letting things air dry, but if you do anticipate doing even a moderate amount of carpet cleaning, I would suggest this full-sized cleaner: http://www.amazon.com/Hoover-SteamVac-Carpet-Cleaner-F5914-900/dp/B00009R66F/ref=sr_1_1?s=appliances&ie=UTF8&qid=1379363374&sr=1-1&keywords=carpet+cleaner

as long as the item you are cleaning could get wet and take some heat from the steam it should work fine. most of my cleaning has been on the grout lines on the floor but it hasnt messed up my shoemolding on the baseboard even though it is painted wood. the machine really isnt a cleaner by itself. it provides hot steam to cut through the gunky stuff that accummilates in areas that dont usually get wiped clean.

If you are going to use it you would probably need to use it on the entire floor so it's even. I don't recommend it at all. I've had to clean my floors with vinegar SEVERAL times to remove the residue this stuff left behind

Yeah, I use it for all kinds of stuff. I used it today when I crawled under the house. I put it down to crawl on.I used it under a parrot cage then hose it off and wash them. I put it over bikes outside so they stay clean too.All from one roll

I have not tried it for that. Good question. It works really well on millipedes that come into the basement.
